NEW YORK, October 1—An injunc- tion restraining Rodolph Valentino from appearing in any motion pictures other .than those produced by. the Famous Players-Lasky Corporation during the period of his contract, was granted by || Supreme Court Justice Wasservogel. Pending final settlement..of the case, the plaintiff corporation was direct- il | ed to post $25,000 as a ucurlty bond. * Valentino, according the testi- mony, -was engaged ]I:: January by the: Famous, Players-Lasky Corpora- tion'at a salary of $1,2560 a week with the option of renewal at'an increased salary' for one year, or fér still an- other year at another increase. The first option was exercised, ' attorneys for the corporation declared, and then Valentino fatled to-appear at the studios at Hollywood, Septémber 4, thereby breaking his contract. The screen ‘star’s defense was that he had been unjustly treated, had been humiliated by’ his ‘employers and at oné time obliged to dress in the open “while making a desert scerie. He had, it was added, had ‘a very unhappy’ existence during the term of his first contraet: ‘His coun- sel “claimed ‘that under ‘a_ruling of the _California courts ' - Valentino's compensation was inadequate and therefore the contract was non-en- || forcible.

Daugh- erty has -declded that the sale of liquors on ‘American ships must stop, and first of all must stop on the ves. sels controlled by the Unlted Suten government. ‘The formal ODlnlon in the matter has not been drafted as'yet, but Ship- | ping ;Board ‘officials are prepared for the adverse decision, and, of eourse, will carry it out'to the letter once it is promujgated. ‘The order discontins uing the sale probably will come down through the President, . “Good-Bye Forever!” Already there is a rush for the “wine cards” of the American ves- sels to be preserved as souvenirs John Barleycorn’s last stand under 0Old Glory. The festive gin fizz, the appetizing cocktail, the “American moonshine” and all the other straight and mixed ‘drinks which appeal ‘so keenly to many people are due to walk the plank within a very short time, and their memory will remain only in the printed word. The bars on ihe various ships will be turned into soda fountains and the smokerooms in the future will tinkle with silver spoons in the chocolate sundaes in- stead of cubicles of ice in the gay highball. ‘fummv Walker, ' Old Taylor.

Shipping Board officials, who have fought hard to put the American ships on a competing basis with those of other nations which have not adopted the prohibition standard, are resigned to the new order of ‘things and will make the best of it. They permitted the sale of liquors on Ship- ping Board passenger vessels on the theory thaf the great majority of the traveling public, going to and from Europe on a holiday, would not pat- ronize “dry” vessgls. As a matter of fact, the Shipping Board vessels, It is said, were being avoided to an extent until word was quietly passed around in this country. that you could get anything you wanted on the Ameri- ITE Enamel-finish Kitchen Table with alumi- $4.75 I Folding Card Table with leatherette top— $1.98 mediately began to pick up.

A’ formal. decision by the Attorney General at this time to the. effect that American vessels ;afe- American ter- ritory wherever in the seven seas they may be will also have the effect of settling for all time the question of stépping, the, entrance into Amer- i¢an ports of passenger liners of olher nations which sell liquors freely once the three-mile limit s crossed. If an American ship is American ter- ritory in Liverpool, then the shipping masters argue that an, English ves- sel is English territory even when she is tied up to a dock in New York. The Anti-Saloon League, the Board of ‘Temperance and other organiza- tloris keeping guard, over pronibition 'have been pressing’lately for a de- cislon from the Department of Jus- ticé, and although the Attorney Gen- éral has had his hands”full of other and-perhaps more important matters, an .early promulgation: of- his opinion is expected. Some American officials believe -that foreign shipping lines have had more than a passing inter-; est in the agitation for the suspension of .the sale of liquor ‘on Shipping Board vessels. There is also a well founded r in circulation that the Shipping l] itself has not been wholly unanimous in ‘permitting the sale of liquor to continue. he Attorney General’s de- cision will, however, settle the matter once and for all.
